I wonder how hard it would be to determine the reliability of using extraneous punctuation as a signal of unhinged prose.
Well and according to metrics, it's also raising the standard of living for the world's poorest, who have been leaving poverty at record rates. It's a shame the evidence doesn't support your narrative. It's such a…
In the current Internet culture, it's very important to constantly signal to the world that you have the correct political stance. You will often find such people espousing the notion that "everything is political"…
It's very important to insist on the correct narrative at every juncture, otherwise people might look into the possibility that those who evince symptoms of mental illness (such as body dysphoria) may actually not be…
I've never understood the drive toward some notion of commercial-free purity the gaming world seems to embody. Is it due to the heavy teenage boy presence that underlies so many other unsavory aspects?
The endpoints in question are not typically used by humans driving a browser, so these objections don't seem applicable.
I can only imagine being frightened by this if I held a large stake in Google. Do you have a different reason?
I imagine it would be easier to accept your assertion of anti-competitive behavior if it weren't trivial to completely ignore Apple for your phone needs, or if there were some sort of Constitutional right guaranteeing…
I have this weird dream, and I am well aware it will never come true, that people will learn how to aim their political anger correctly. There's enough of a problem to be solved and we don't need people muddying up the…
Yeah you can tell the Trump-Russia connections are not a quixotic quagmire by how the stories continue to be filled with weasel words and spend 100% of their column inches not presenting any evidence at all.
It's important to use feelings to divide people into classes, because that's one easy way we can justify hatred and dehumanization for ourselves.
But you're incorrect, and the word "instead" in your original post is what makes you incorrect. We did get "Shakespeare to the masses" for whatever that's worth in general. It's not like his work is some objective…
Mostly off-topic, but I'm curious, do you believe "fake news" is both new and also a real problem?
Viewing the investment as insignificant because the investor has more money is a seriously foolish perspective that ought to be fought against instead of expressed
That was true a decade ago. The tooling has caught up in most languages, so it's trivial to embed your SQL in application code and use it in an environmentally independent matter (eg to invoke in unit tests), provided…
That's actually a pretty great argument that software patents are a good idea for the US, it prevents foreign copycat competition from soaking up the market on us.
I'd love to remind the author of the original headline (it appears to have been changed) that there's a huge difference between not understanding something now and knowing you'll never understand it.
This is not really a contradiction. Automation will indeed replace humans in millions of jobs, low-paying and otherwise, but until that process reaches a critical tipping point, we still have a country to run.
Nope. Especially since many of us don't have piles of irrational hatred for it.
it's important to note, (western) government decisions already are algorithmic. We simply aren't privy to many of the steps involved, and our ability to influence outcomes is limited by the elitism of representative…
Do you have a belief that politicians somehow do know these things well enough to make decisions across this spectrum on your behalf?
What in particular makes you feel ill about this? What is the strong emotion that affects you so upon reading of the wealth of a person you will never meet? Normally when people say this, their tone makes it evident…
I'm an Eagles fan and I did not know this. I used to end up spending time with an amazingly annoying Jets fan, this would have been a fun tidbit to bring up repeatedly.
Your lifestyle is being subsidized by the negative externalities your transportation causes that you don't pay for, so it's not a great argument against advancing technology, because your comfort only matters to you.
So let's stipulate you are correct. What does it matter? You've made some noise but shed no light at all.
